one logical explanation for Materialistic Athiesm?

[Alex K]

But as far as I can tell it is just a fan club against religion.

Oh wow you are such a dishonest hack. Please stop insulting my intelligence, would you? I mean, it's not like our comments are *visible* in this very thread and prove you wrong...

If materialism is correct, and this universe is simply a ball of blind matter that happened to spring into existence and then spawn consciousness as pure fluke (scientists are realising this doesn't make any sense) then you have to believe in miracles. Here's why;

If the universe is purely matter, then either;

Something came out of nothing, or
it is infinite.

Oh I see, you are bringing out the standard wrong arguments. Boring.

Define what you mean by "coming" outside the context of a universe with a preexisting timeline. The words you are using, they don't mean anything outside the context of our universe.

The idea of an infinite universe within time and space is a highly illogical one and that has been clear for centuries.

Is that so?

So, if something came out of nothing, then how?

Again, this sentence is meaningless. You've got nothing (no pun indended), your argument only superficially sounds plausible, but is nonexistent.

Well that's a miracle no matter how it happened. And don't give me the theories of multiple universes etc. because it had to start somewhere, and creating multiple universes is an unnecessary complication to the matter.

Not necessarily, because there is some indirect empirical evidence for them, so there may be some justification to bringing them up.

I am interested in the truth

Then I've got a tip for you: stop lying about what the atheists here say.
